Get your facts straight!
Doug and Dan did not sell anything to VFO. They merged with AI Squared
who waited a year before selling their soul to the shark. It is their
CEO who is now a VP at VFO.
Tap into your Ph.D. candidacy to see if you can figure out the
sympathetic resonances in this arpeggio.

So, no monopoly here, yet. Just business.
The same thing happened in the Long Distance and local phone markets.
The AT field is no different, whether we like it or not.
Your analogy is somewhat flawed because long distance telephone carriers
provided the exact same service. Whether you used AT&T or MCI, back in
the day, you didn't have to learn an entirely new conceptual layout just
to get long distance service. If Dan and Doug simply wanted to retire
from the accessibility market, they could have sold the company to an
enterprising software developer with an interest in the blind
accessibility market. Instead, the code now belongs to VFO, locked away
from future development. That doesn't seem sensible, and I can't imagine
how much VFO could have offered GWMicro to take its code off the market.
